Silence clang warnings under --enable-expensive-hardening, including:
+ implicit truncation of 64 bit values to 32 bit;
+ const char assignment to self;
+ tautological compare; and
+ additional parentheses around equality tests. (gcc uses these to
silence assignment, so clang warns when they're present in an
equality test. But we need to use extra parentheses in macros to
isolate them from other code).
We're calling mallocfn() and reallocfn() in the HT_GENERATE macro
with the result of a product. But that makes any sane analyzer
worry about overflow.
This patch keeps HT_GENERATE having its old semantics, since we
aren't the only project using ht.h. Instead, define a HT_GENERATE2
that takes a reallocarrayfn.
The fix for bug 8746 added a hashtable instance that never actually
invoked HT_FIND. This caused a warning, since we didn't mark HT_FIND
as okay-not-to-use.
scan-build recognizes that in theory there could be a numeric overflow
here.
This can't numeric overflow can't trigger IRL, since in order to fill a
hash table with more than P=402653189 buckets with a reasonable load
factor of 0.5, we'd first have P/2 malloced objects to put in it--- and
each of those would have to take take at least sizeof(void*) worth of
malloc overhead plus sizeof(void*) content, which would run you out of
address space anyway on a 32-bit system.
clang 3.4 introduced a new by-default warning about unused static
functions, which we triggered heavily for the hashtable and map function
generating macros. We can use __attribute__ ((unused)) (thanks nickm for
the suggestion :-) ) to silence these warnings.
The rationale for treating these files differently is that we should
be checking upstream for changes as applicable, and merging changes
upstream as warranted.
